1. Patara Beach
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1,288 reviews
This 12-mile long beach is also a National Park. Its proximity to the ruins keeps hotels from developing in the area, making it great for uncrowded swimming as well as bird watching.

2. Kaleici

The old city of Antalya contains many of the city's historic sites. Renovations to the marina and waterfront have added several hotels, restaurants and shops, making this a popular tourist destination.

One of my most memorable places that I have visited and stayed at is Kaleici. Its a beautiful old town with old cobbled streets, a lovely old harbour with beaches and lovely views, amazing places to shop for local handicrafts and souvenirs as well as carpets and leather goods, and a foodie heaven with awesome street food as well as fine dine places. The area should be explored on foot, with myriad lanes and by-lanes taking you to different historical sites that add charm to the whole experience. One of the oldest Turkish bath houses is also to be found here, which I chanced upon during just walking around and soaking in the atmosphere. on weekends, the whole street near the old harbour turns into a pub, with restaurants and pubs playing live music and serving food outside on the street.. Its a not to be missed place for travellers who love to explore!
3. Hadrian's Gate
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1,735 reviews
A historical site not to be missed. Just off Atatürk Boulevard you’ll see the impressive three double arches of the gates, which were erected in 130 to celebrate the visit of Emperor Hadrian. Legend has it that in ancient times, the queen of Sheba passed through the middle arch on her way to Aspensos and spent a happy night with King Salomon. With the exception of the columns, the arch is made from white marble and is richly decorated.

4. Lower Duden Waterfalls
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 4,244 reviews
The Duden Waterfalls are actually two separate natural attractions within the City of Antalya. Upper & Lower Waterfalls.. Lower Duden Waterfall is a spectacular cascade that occurs as the Duden River spills off the Antalya City cliffs into the sea. You can feel the droplets of amazing Duden Waterfalls ending at the mediterranean, swim nearby and enjoy the mesmerizing sightseeings of the city, mountains and forests by the Antalya Shores. Shoot some attractive photos to share with friends and family on a daily private boat trip. The Upper Duden Waterfalls are a series of small cascades in a tranquil municipal park. When visiting the upper falls within the park, don't miss climbing down a spiral staircase that leads into a cave behind the waterfalls. This experience affords fabulous views through a curtain of falling water.

It's a really stunning place, either if you decide to visit it from the cliff (there's a nice spot where you can take great pictures) or by boat or even renting a kayak (if you're hotel is nearby - like it was mine, Lara Hotel) its definitely a unique spot around Antalya! :)
5. Kekova Island

Kekova Sound is on the southern coast of Turkey, protected the open Mediterranean by Kekova Island. As there are few roads traversing the rugged landscape, it is best explored by boat: sailboats, motorized tour boats, glass bottomed boats, canoes and kayaks are all available for hire at the Üçağız village docks. Rocky limestone headlands plunge into the sound, forming little bays, inlets and lagoons perfect for swimming. Occasional fish can be spotted in the crystal-clear water. On the northern side of Kekova Island are the partly sunken ruins of Dolchiste (Greek:Dolikisthe), an ancient town destroyed by an earthquake in the 2nd century. The town was rebuilt and flourished during the Byzantine Empire period, but abandoned because of Arab incursions. Ancient buildings and walls are visible on the steep shore and submerged under water (the ruins are protected, so shore excursions and swimming are not permitted). The northwest of the island has another abandoned town, Tersane, meaning "dockyard", as its bay was the site of an ancient city Xera and harbor.) It has ruins of a Byzantine church. This area of Turkey is called the "Turquoise Coast", for its beautiful natural landscape and clear waters. I enjoyed a day cruise, watching sea birds from our boat. As i viewed the rugged landscape, I could see why boat traffic connected coastal towns and facilitated commerce. Protected harbors such as Kekova Sound would have been very desirable. Viewing sunrise or sunset reflected in the sound is a sublime experience.
6. Kursunlu Waterfalls

Reviewed By inflexible85 - Canakkale, Turkey
Kurşunlu Waterfall National Park is a natural wonder where you can breathe and cool off in a hot city like Antalya, where you will find peace in many shades of green. It is easy to access and there is no parking problem. You buy tickets for a small fee and enter the park. A few cafes welcome you as soon as you enter. From there, you go down the stairs and you will face with the wonderful waterfall. If you want, you can pass behind the poured water through natural tunnels and you can touch the water. It is said that the water level changes from time to time. The event doesn't stop here after seeing the waterfall. You continue walking with the paths and bridges formed in a 2-kilometer-long lush canyon and finally return to the place where you entered again. In the meantime, while walking in the canyon, you will also find an excellent cafe. You should definitely see the Kursunlu Waterfall.
